2018 is recognized as the big year for the NBA Draft.
Fourteen lottery picks have produced Doncic and Alexander, two stardoms.
Thirty first-round picks, Trae Young and Porter Jr. signed top salaries, Ayton and Jalen Jackson and others, also have billion-dollar contracts in hand.
Even among the second-round picks, there are up-and-coming stars such as Brunson, and the overall quality is comparable to the 03 platinum generation.
But while the 2018 draft was of high quality, it wasn't all of them.
For example, Jerome Robinson, the No. 13 pick in the first round, is a true parallel trader.
In a career total of 113 games, he averaged just 4.5 points per game and shot as low as 36.3 percent.
After the rookie contract ended, Jerome Robinson left the NBA directly, two years ago.
He wasn't re-signed by the Warriors until today, but only on an unguaranteed contract.
Jerome Robinson is 26 years old, 1.93 meters tall and plays as a defender.
In his sophomore season, he averaged 20.7 points per game, was named to the NCAA All-NBA Team, and was named the best player in the United States.
Jerry West, who was with the Clippers at the time, believed that Jerome Robinson had the potential to become a star guard.
At the suggestion of the old man, the Clippers chose him without hesitation.
But what I never expected was that Jerry West, who read countless people, actually looked away this time.
As a lottery pick hand-picked by Jerry West, why did Jerome Robinson become a parallel trader?
It can only be said that the players finding the right positioning on the field will really help the future development.
Jerome Robinson's height is too short to play the number two, and the organizational ability to play the number one is not strong enough.
At the same time, because of the shortcomings of weak strength, he often becomes a breakthrough in the eyes of opponents on the defensive end.
When a guard is not tall, not strong, and his shooting is not very stable, who is willing to cultivate patiently?
